Which thermometer scale has its zero at the freezing point of water and 100 at the boiling point of water?
easy Q3 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Recall thermometer scales
Different temperature scales have different reference points for freezing and boiling of water.Step 2: Identify the scale with 0°C freezing and 100°C boiling
The Celsius scale sets 0°C as freezing point and 100°C as boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure.Final Answer:
Celsius scale → Option CQuick Check:
Celsius scale = 0 freezing, 100 boiling water ✅
Quick Trick: Celsius scale is based on water's freezing and boiling points.
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Confusing Fahrenheit or Kelvin scales with Celsius scale.
